Chapter 79: Three Famous Paintings
Noticing the change in Wang Li's face, Wei Zhongxian was a little curious: "Princess, do you also know this painting?" ”
"Uh...... Yes, I've heard of it, I've heard of it! ”
Wang Li's heart was pounding, and he didn't show his voice.
Roll up the painting at random, place it on the wooden shelf, and pick up another one.
Pretending to be very interested, I tasted it carefully, but I remembered the "Qingming Riverside Map" in my heart!
Be sure to find a way to get your hands on it!
At this time, it shouldn't be worth much!
But if it is passed on to one's son, grandson, great-grandson, and everlasting, isn't it worth it?
Wait for two or three hundred years, that's worth a lot!
Oh, that's not right!
Wei Zhongxian is illiterate, and he has no taste, why do you collect so many calligraphy and paintings?
Could it be that he knew the value of the painting?
Hey, this one in your hand...... It seems to be quite long......
Scold!
It turned out that it was six pieces of rice paper rolled together!
This landscape painting doesn't feel good!
Huang Zijiu...... Yifeng Daoren......
Huang Zijiu, Huang Zijiu?
The name, how to ...... Sound familiar?
Huang Zijiu?
I'll go!
Huang Zijiu, isn't it Huang Gongwang!
Nima!
Could it be that this is "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map"!
That's right, six pieces of rice paper!
It has not been framed yet, it should be the authentic work of Huang Gongwang!
But why isn't it framed?
Why are you here?
How many good things is hidden in this dog's day Wei Zhongxian?
"Princess, you ...... Is it cold? Why are your hands shaking? ”
"Uh...... In the middle of the night, you have Mrs. Ke to help warm the bed, naturally it's not cold, but I've come all the way over!
By the way, how did this painting get in your hands? ”
"This one?"
Wei Zhongxian took a closer look, and his face was full of disdain: "
This painting was painted by the Yuan Dynasty painter Huang Gongwang, who first gave it to Zheng Yu, a fellow disciple of the Quanzhen Sect;
Then, in the Chenghua period, it was passed to the painter Shen Zhou, and after it was lost by his friend, there was no news of this painting for a long time;
In the Jiajing period, this painting was accidentally obtained by the great writer An Shaofang;
In the fourth year of Longqing, it was purchased by Wuxi painter Tan Zhiyi;
In the twenty-fourth year of Wanli, it was purchased by the painter Dong Qichang;
In the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Dong Qichang was the official of the Southern Capital Rite Department, and I used a little means to make him resign and return to his hometown;
Then, the painting came to my hand. ”
Wei Zhongxian's words shocked Wang Li for a moment!
Could it be that the people of this era already know that these are famous paintings?
Or is it that in this day and age, these paintings are already worth a lot of money?
It seems that we have to inquire!
"Grandpa Wei, this painting ...... I don't think so! Why are so many people rushing to buy?
At the beginning, when Dong Qichang bought this painting, how much silver did he use? ”
"I heard that it seems to be two thousand taels of silver!
Alas! These crazy people!
Two thousand taels of silver to buy a painting, it's crazy! ”
"That's it! Buy a bunch of waste paper, can't eat and can't wear, there's a fart! ”
Wang Li casually threw away the painting, and watched Wei Zhongxian's every move with the corner of his eye.
His face was still disdainful!
I almost stepped on it, but I didn't care, and my eyes fell on the wooden frame.
"If you say you like it, I can only see this "Tsinghua Ming Riverside Picture"!"
"Oh? What is so special about this painting? ”
"Actually, it's nothing!
Mainly, the painting was included in the Imperial Palace;
Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, also inscribed five signatures in the frontispiece, and stamped with the small seal of Shuanglong;
Moreover, this painting has been circulated several times and has been collected by Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet;
After Yan Song's house was raided, this painting was included in the palace;
Subsequently, it was obtained by the eunuch Feng Bao. ”
"Oh, I see......"
Wang Li pretended to be careless and picked up another one casually.
Wei Zhongxian, you shouldn't know calligraphy and painting!
However, if you make a bid to buy it, or show the slightest covetousness, the old fox will notice!
So, hold on!
Don't worry!
"Smack!"
Wang Li threw the scroll on the wooden shelf, pretending to be extremely disappointed: "I thought that your treasure pavilion had rare treasures!" ”
"Didn't I just say that you have to keep a low profile, a low profile!
By the way, what is the important reason for you to come here? ”
"Grandpa Wei, I want to ask you for a favor: if Lord Wansui wants to move Yuan Chonghuan, you can help me save his life!"
"Me?" Wei Zhongxian shook his head and smiled wryly: "I myself am trembling, how can I keep him?" ”
"No, you can! This matter will be handed over to Dongchang! ”
"That's right!"
At the top of the stairs, Ke Yinyue's voice came: "The prince is right! If Zhu Youzhen wants to move Yuan Chonghuan, he will definitely let Dongchang come forward! ”
While speaking, he threw Wang Li a wink!
Wang Li was so frightened that he pretended to pick up the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map", and hurriedly stayed away from her.
Wei Zhongxian didn't notice Ke Yinyue's flattering eyes, still thinking about her words.
Indeed it is!
Yuan Chonghuan has a personal relationship with Wang Ergou, and Yuan Chonghuan will not fall into the hands of Xichang!
At present, Han Yi, the first assistant of the cabinet, Qian Longxi, the second assistant of the cabinet, Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department, and Xue Zhen, the secretary of the criminal department, are all from the Donglin Party!
Therefore, Zhu Youzhen wants to kill Yuan Chonghuan and will never hand him over to the Criminal Department!
And Wei Zhongxian of Dongchang, because of the military exploits of encroaching on the "Ningjin Great Victory", forced Yuan Chonghuan to resign and return to his hometown, and he was even more in the same situation as the Donglin Party!
Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan will definitely fall into the hands of Dongchang!
Moreover, it can also provoke the contradiction between the second factory of the east and west!
Zhu Youzhen, really cunning!
Wang Ergou and Ke Yinyue are more cunning!
They had expected it a long time ago!
"Don't worry, Yuan Chonghuan has arrived at Dongchang, and I will help you protect him!
However, if the Lord of Long Live is determined to cure his crimes, I can't help it! ”
"Don't worry, I'll figure out the rest of the matter! You just keep him from dying in the East Factory! ”
After that, Wang Li pretended to be careless, and wanted to see other calligraphy and paintings, but heard bursts of cannons.
Needless to say, Huang Taiji is attacking the city again!
……
Wang Li and Wei Zhongxian came to the city, and there was a scee outside Zuo'an Gate, but the sound of artillery in the city stopped!
This time, Huang Taiji dispatched at least 5,000 soldiers and horses!
Under the city, the white-armored soldiers and the Guanning iron cavalry are inseparable!
A few miles away, Huang Taiji still has more than 20,000 cavalry as backup!
In this formation, it is estimated that in less than an hour, Guan Ning Iron Cavalry will have to fight out!
If there is no Guanning Iron Cavalry, what elite can the Guanning Army talk about?
If there is no Guanning Iron Cavalry, what will you do to stop Huang Taiji?
Although the population of Houjin is small, almost all of them are soldiers, and they are all brave and good at fighting!
Even if Houjin's cavalry is exhausted, Huang Taiji retreats to the north, raises a few horses at will, and explodes a wave of soldiers at will, and will be able to pull out a team next year!
On the other hand, although the Ming Dynasty has a large population, it has no money to form a new cavalry, so what can it do to compete with Huang Taiji?
No way!
If you continue to fight like this, you will finish playing sooner or later!
So, Wang Li hurriedly went to the Qianqing Palace.
"Long live the lord, if there is no artillery support, if the Guanning army runs out, and the reinforcements from all walks of life have no backbone, they are likely to be defeated in one blow!
However, as long as the cannon in the city sounds, the rear phalanx of Jiannu is unstable, and the army will be withdrawn! ”
Wang Li's words made Zhu Youzhen's brows tightened.
The Beijing camp in the city doesn't know how to play with cannons, Zhu Youzhen has long known it!
However, the "military aircraft battalion" of the Guanning Army, which can play with artillery, is a "border army" and cannot enter the city as a rule!
Moreover, the commander of the Guan Ning Army is Yuan Chonghuan!
Thinking of Yuan Chonghuan, Zhu Youzhen was furious!
"Long live Lord, you only need two hundred gunners to enter the city, as long as the cannon sounds, this battle will be won!
No, the gunners don't need to enter the city!
Just use the basket and pull them up the wall!
Long live the lord, the gunners only go up to the city wall, and they don't count as entering the city, right? ”
"Good! Do as you say!
Once Jiannu withdraws, the Guanning army must withdraw outside the city! ”
"No!"
Zhu Youzhen was finally moved, and Wang Li hurried back to Zuo'anmen.
Soon, the cannon fire in the city was deafening!
Two miles away, the Houjin main formation, people turn on their backs!
After being hit by a cannon, although not many people were killed, Huang Taiji didn't dare to show off his might, and finally Mingjin withdrew his troops!
……
In the city, singing and dancing again leveled up.
The voice of cursing Yuan Chonghuan was higher and higher!
Alas!
If there is no immortal rescue, Yuan Chonghuan will definitely die!
"Father-in-law Wei, during the melee in the afternoon, who led the musket team on Zu Dashou's left?"
"Princess, do you finally see something abnormal?" Wei Zhongxian picked up the wine bowl, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Long live the Lord trusts, it is no longer the East Factory and the West Factory!"
The musketeers you are talking about belong to the Loyal and Brave Battalion, and are under the governor of the celebrant eunuch Li Fengxiang;
Not only that, the admiral of the Nine Gates of the Jingshi and the inner city of the palace is neither you nor me, nor Sun Chengzong, but Shen Liang, the celebrant of the ceremonial eunuch! ”
"Shen Liang! Li Fengxiang! ”
Wang Li silently read the two names, his brows furrowed: "Where did these two guys come from?" Why have you never heard of it? ”
Wei Zhongxian's face was playful, and Wang Li helplessly explained: "My West Factory only has 6,000 people, and most of them are in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Shanxi, so the intelligence work must be better than yours!" ”
Actually, you don't know, and I can't blame you completely!
These two people are from Nandu and are Cao Huachun's right-hand men!
is the so-called "love house and Wu", long live the Lord trusts Cao Huachun, so he naturally trusts Shen Liang and Li Fengxiang!
So, you have to keep a low profile too!
Don't be like Yuan Chonghuan, who doesn't know when he dies! ”
"Alas! It's really like a tiger!
That's it, that's it!
Keep it low, keep it low!
Strive to mix up for a few more years, make some more money, and strive to get out of the way!
At that time, go back to your hometown to raise flowers, yo-yo birds, enjoy paintings, and a few more beauties to warm the bed, and there will be nothing to shake in this life! ”
Wang Li complained, and the "unintentionally" mentioned the appreciation of the painting, which really attracted Wei Zhongxian's attention!
"Princess-in-law, do you also have a study of calligraphy and painting? Do you also like to collect famous paintings? ”
Study?
Paintings?
These words made Wang Li uneasy!
Could it be that Wei Zhongxian knows that he has a collection of famous paintings?
Are there any other famous paintings in his treasure house?
No way! Don't show your feet!
"No, no, no!" Wang Li hurriedly denied it, and smiled: "Grandpa Wei, I just said you!"
Actually, I don't like to walk around and enjoy paintings, so it's okay to play with couplets! ”
Wang Li knew that Wei Zhongxian was illiterate, and deliberately mentioned the "couplet" just to divert his attention.
Unexpectedly, Wei Zhongxian still chased after him: "I don't know what famous paintings are, but I just collected a few at random and threw them in the basement to eat ashes!"
However, when it comes to famous paintings, Jingshi really has one! ”
Wei Zhongxian wanted to speak and stopped, successfully arousing Wang Li's interest.
From Wei Zhongxian's eyes, it can be seen that he has a covetous heart for that painting!
At this point, Wang Li was completely stunned!
Wei Zhongxian, does this guy know how to paint?
If he doesn't understand, how can he have "Qingming Riverside Map" and "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map"?
If he doesn't understand, how can he covet "another famous painting"?
If he understands, how could he throw those famous paintings in the basement at will?
So, Wang Li was silent, and followed Wei Zhongxian's words and said: "Since Gonggong Wei said that it was a famous painting, it must not be ordinary!"
Ignorance...... Whose hand is this painted on?
If Grandpa Wei likes it, I'll get it for you! ”
"No, no, no, I'm just talking about it!" Wei Zhongxian picked up the wine bowl and said lightly:
"I heard that the painting is "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" by Wang Ximeng of the Song Dynasty;
If the information is correct, it should be in the hands of Hou Sui, the right attendant of the military department! ”
Hearing the words "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" and "Hou Sui", Wang Li's eyes almost lit up!
Although it was back to normal immediately, Wei Zhongxian still noticed it!
